SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 12, 2026 — Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ : AMAT) today reported results for its first quarter ended Jan. 25, 2026.

First Quarter Results

Applied generated revenue of $7.01 billion. On a GAAP basis, the company reported gross margin of 49.0 percent, operating income of $1.83 billion or 26.1 percent of net revenue, and earnings per share (EPS) of $2.54.

On a non-GAAP basis, the company reported gross margin of 49.1 percent, operating income of $2.11 billion or 30.0 percent of net revenue, and EPS of $2.38.

The company generated $1.69 billion in cash from operations and distributed $702 million to shareholders through $337 million in share repurchases and $365 million in dividends.

“Applied Materials delivered strong results in our fiscal first quarter, fueled by the acceleration of industry investments in AI computing,” said Gary Dickerson, President and CEO. “The need for higher performance and more energy-efficient chips is driving high growth rates for leading-edge logic, high-bandwidth memory and advanced packaging. These are areas where Applied is the process equipment leader, and we expect to grow our semiconductor equipment business over 20 percent this calendar year.”

“With demand increasing for our innovative products and services, we are focused on ensuring we have the capacity to support our customers,” said Brice Hill, Senior Vice President and CFO. “Over the past several years, we have nearly doubled our system manufacturing capability, strengthened our supply chain and increased our inventories in preparation for market growth.”

Recent Highlights

•Announced that Samsung Electronics will join Applied’s new EPIC Center in Silicon Valley. The EPIC Center is designed to dramatically reduce the time it takes to commercialize breakthrough technologies from early-stage research to full-scale manufacturing.

•Introduced new deposition, etch and materials modification systems that boost the energy-efficient performance of Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistors and wiring at 2nm and beyond.

▪Viva™ – a pure radical treatment that smoothens GAA silicon nanosheets with atomic-level precision to increase transistor performance.

▪Sym3™ Z Magnum™ – a conductor etch system that delivers angstrom-level 3D trench profile control to increase silicon nanosheet uniformity and performance.

▪Spectral™ – an atomic layer deposition system that replaces today’s tungsten transistor contacts with molybdenum, a new contact metal that lowers electrical resistance at the critical link between transistors and the copper wiring network.

•Received 2025 TSMC Excellent Performance Awards for Excellent Technology Development and Production Support and Excellent Contribution in Green Manufacturing.

•Recognized by Micron Technology with a 2025 Outstanding Performance in Sustainability Award.

Business Outlook

Applied’s total revenue and non-GAAP diluted EPS for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 are expected to be as follows:


	Q2 FY2026
(In millions, except per share amounts)
Total revenue	$	7,650	+/-	$	500

Non-GAAP diluted EPS	$	2.64	+/-	$	0.20

This outlook for non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes known charges related to completed acquisitions of $0.01 per share and includes a net income tax benefit related to intra-entity intangible asset transfers of $0.04 per share, but does not reflect any items that are unknown at this time, such as any additional charges related to acquisitions or other non-operational or unusual items, as well as other tax-related items, which we are not able to predict without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent uncertainty.

First Quarter Reportable Segment Information

Effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, management moved our 200-millimeter equipment business to Semiconductor Systems. The business was previously included in Applied Global Services. Additionally, effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, management began fully allocating corporate support costs to our operating segments.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Applied provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are adjusted for the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, including, as applicable, certain items related to mergers and acquisitions; restructuring and severance charges and any associated adjustments; legal settlement charges; impairments of assets; gain or loss, dividends and impairments on strategic investments; certain income tax items; and other discrete adjustments. On a non-GAAP basis, the tax effect related to share-based compensation is recognized ratably over the fiscal year. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided in the financial tables included in this release.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the company’s operating and financial performance and for planning purposes, and as performance measures in its executive compensation program. Applied believes these measures enhance an overall understanding of its performance and investors’ ability to review the company’s business from the same perspective as the company’s management, and facilitate comparisons of this period’s results with prior periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of Applied's ongoing operating performance. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and may exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Webcast Information

Applied Materials will discuss these results during an earnings call that begins at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time today. A live webcast and related slide presentation will be available at https://ir.appliedmaterials.com. A replay will be available on the website beginning at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time today.
